Downloading film clips

Hi all

When I use to download film clips I just clicked on the clip and it opened Windows Media Player 6.0 and then downloaded the clip showing the percentage as it downloaded.

Now when I do it I have to

Right clip on the clip

Choose Save target as

Open temp internet folder

Click save

Any ideas on how to change it back so I do not have to go through all this.

Thanks and regards

Mike

You should see a "Media" button on the the main IE menu bar click on that then go to the media options.

Also check the advanced options in "Internet Options" from the tools menu in IE

And finally check the options in Media Player itself.

Odds are it is one of these that needs re-setting.
